Obama War President — Giant Disappointment — Now a Joke
Indeed, President Obama is now the war President with all this escalation talk in Afghanistan.
I look at not even one year in the White House, and Obama is a gigantic disappointment — still, better than Bush — yet, a gigantic disappointment. There was so much possible with Obama but this guy is obviously more concerned about keeping the status quo than doing the right thing. He probably thinks it will get him reelected but he won’t get my vote again.
First, it was Obama appeasing to Wall Street and all of the give aways — BILLIONS and BILLIONS to banks which were destroying the country financially.
I listened as he said things were going to be different — that people who not lose their houses — that jobs would be created. Exactly which part of that has come true even just a little bit? Unemployment is so bad that it is likely 25% of people unemployed or underemployed. One in Eight Americans need food stamps in order to avoid starving to death. The Bush Tax cuts for the rich are still in place with no hope for getting them reverse. Obama — you are doing one horrible job.
Later it became health care and the deals with health insurance companies, big pharmaceuticals, and all the while screwing ordinary Americans. In the end this Bozo will tell America that it is historic but it will all just be bullshit. Obama is the king of Bullshit. I guess it is much easier to traffic in nonsense than in real change.
No Gitmo closing. No pullout of Iraq. Escalation in Afghanistan. Indeed, Obama is the war President just like so many before him.
America loves their wars and fighting. They love the troops. Well, I don’t love the troops. It is the troops that facilitate all this war. No wonder all the these Presidents love the troops. I love the people who refuse to be troops or quit when they see how they are being used. Go to a Veterans clinic and see all the young people with managed bodies after being a troop.
Yet, with all the sell outs, Obama continues to go on the radio and television and talk progressive. All I hear is Obama is a gigantic disappointment. He could have been a real force for change — now he is just an errand boy for the rich and powerful. So, keep going on your foreign crusades and keep talking all progressive, but to me Obama you are just a fool for letting your election go for nothing. Obama is a joke.
America is doomed.
Health Care Reform Makes Me Sick
Have you been reading all the non-sense about the House narrowly passing a Health Care Bill? Well, Hurrah! Big Fucking Deal!
After months of debate, it comes down to a narrow victory for a lame bill. The provisions of much of this bill will not go into effect for years. It certainly does something but it remains to be seen whether this ’something’ will be good for anybody but the greedy insurance and medical establishment. I will tell you right now, it will not be good for ordinary citizens or America. It is just one more nail in the coffin that America is just a shit-hole of a place to live in 2009.
Then, of course, you have the House of Lords — also known as the US Senate. There, you have assholes like Lieberman who says he will block any potential vote on Health Care, even though 80% of his electorates favor reform. Honestly, with people like Lieberman — a greedy, phony independent son of a bitch — who claims to be aligned with the Democrats, there is no hope for this country. This man is an idiot and the fact that the citizens of Connecticut can’t seem to elect somebody better is a testimony to the demise of America.
Plus, you have one Republican Senator after another declaring that the House bill has no chance in the Senate. This I actually agree with this point of view. The deck has always been stacked against Health Care reform. Big money and greed always wins in America. This is the land of “I’ve Got Mine, Fuck Everybody Else” and nobody understands this game better than the assholes who call themselves Republicans.
Meanwhile, you have lame duck President Obama declaring victory — what a fantasy world he lives in. I don’t know what papers he reads but this is hardly a victory. Perhaps, it is a victory in the realization that America just doesn’t work any more. Perhaps, this shows that it is impossible to even solve critical problems. I mean problems that unsolved will kill people, every day and in every state. You would think a problem of that magnitude would actually get some genuine problem solving — but — oh no — not in 2009 America. No, no — greed is the only thing that wins in America.
I use to love America but I hate this god damn place more every day. That’s right — FUCK AMERICA and every god damn greedy bastard that says that it is the greatest place on earth.
America is doomed.
